Obituary

Faria, Antonio

Born on Feb 27, 1937 in Portugal

God called Antonio peacefully on April 10, 2021, at the age of 85. He will be forever missed by his loving Wife Jorgina, Cherished by his/her dear children, Tony Faria, son (Vera Faria) Grace Branco, Daughter (Roger Branco) Joe Faria, son (Anna Reis-Faria) Tiberio Faria, son (Paula Faria). Proud grandfather to Jason Branco, Joshua Faria, Jessica Ana Faria, Erica Nicholson, Jonathan Faria, Ryan Joseph Faria, Amy Faria and Alexa Faria, and Great grandfather to Ava Rose Branco, Silas Jason Nicholson and Charlotte Laura Nicholson. Antonio will be rejoined in heaven with his beloved parents Ernesto and Margarida Faria and all his siblings. He will be held dear in the hearts of his family, relatives, and many friends.

Our dad was a very well respected man both in his family and in his community.  He was a master of many things and was an amazing carpenter.  We have so many amazing memories of lots of home projects that he helped get off the ground.  He was a man of very few words, but those words were always of kindness, wisdom and love.  We will miss him dearly but his love, respect for others will forever remain in our hearts. Visitations will take place at the Cardinal Funeral Home Bathurst Chapel, the funeral mass will be held at St. Mary’s Roman Catholic Church followed by an Entombment at Holy Cross Catholic Cemetery.

Donations in loving memory of Antonio may be made to:

To my sweet aunt Jorgina, my cousins and extended family, Domenic and I want to extend our sympathies to you all. My uncle Antonio was an amazing gentle soul. He was kind, funny and always happy. I know for me, my memories of a happy childhood always included him. Weekends were spent with our Dad’s playing cards while kids ran around the basement. He opened his home to everyone. You, my dear uncle, most certainly were welcomed into heaven with open arms, because that’s how you lived...your arms wide open to anyone and everyone. He and I have had a ritual handshake since I was a little girl, and I got to do it with him one more time a week before he passed. Good bye “my papachoo”. I will see you in heaven one day.

I pray you see him in each others smiles, and feel him in your loving embraces. I will miss his joyful presence forever. I wish I could give you all the biggest hug but please know I am thinking of you all and I love you so much! Rest in love, Tio Antonio. You will always be missed.
